Chapter 155: Ingenious and ingenious, the dummy deceives arrows, defeating the enemy with all odds ①
Night enveloped the earth, and the moonlight shone down, covering Taiping City with a layer of silvery white gauze.
The study room is filled with the smell of ink and old furniture. The two mix together to complement the atmosphere of a scholar.
The flames flickered in the brazier, reflecting Helianhuan's elegant and unparalleled face, projecting a dreamlike light and shadow.
He sat upright in front of his desk, his fingers unconsciously folding the frosted fan, and the image of Gu Wangshu when he came up with a plan appeared in his mind.
Just now, Gu Wangshu, Gu Jingli and Gu Jingyi were chatting happily in the study.
He asked: "What is the strategy you are talking about?"
A determined light appeared on the face of the woman sitting opposite him. He liked to see this look on her face the most, because he knew that he must also have this look when he was thinking of ways to defend himself against the enemy and was about to play with the enemy in the palm of his hand. expression.
He likes to deal with smart people, especially if this smart person is a woman, it is even more rare and will inevitably attract people's admiration.
Just listen to her saying: "Excuse me, Your Highness, is it urgent to make arrows immediately?"
This is what he answered her then.
"An arrow consists of an arrow shaft and an arrowhead. The arrow body is usually made of wood and bamboo. Taiping City is surrounded by mountains on three sides. It is very easy to raise enough wood and bamboo. The difficulty lies in the arrowhead."
"The arrowheads need to be polished. There are only a limited number of blacksmiths in the city, and the number of arrowheads that can be produced every day is also limited. It would take more than a year and a half to polish enough arrowheads to fight the 15 Nalan army outside the city."
"Once the Nalan Army's food is insufficient to continue to sustain itself, it will inevitably launch a fierce attack on us again. Without arrows for defense, it cannot conduct long-range attacks. This is a major hidden danger for us."
Gu Wangshu agreed very much with He Lianhuan's analysis.
"We don't have enough time to make arrows. If we want to obtain arrows as quickly as possible, we can only seize ready-made arrows."
This statement surprised everyone present.
Seize the arrow?Where to take it?
Now that Taiping City is surrounded, reinforcements can't get in, and they can't get out.
Ready-made arrows are only available to Nalan Army.
Gu Jingli was shocked by Gu Wangshu's words.
"Xiao Shu, you don't mean to go to Nalan Army to seize the arrows, do you?"
Gu Wangshu's smile was unfathomable.
"Fifth brother still understands me."
Gu Jingli, Gu Jingyi, He Lianhuan: "..."
Isn't this a foolish dream?They stayed in the city until they left the city. Firstly, Taiping City was easy to defend and difficult to attack. Secondly, they clearly realized that their own troops were no match for the Nalan Army. Going out of the city to meet the enemy would be a dead end.
How could he leave the city knowing that there was no chance of winning?
But Gu Wangshu said that he wanted to seize the arrows from the Nalan army. Isn't this a joke?
At that time, he failed to seize other people's arrows. Instead, he was shot into a hedgehog by thousands of other people's arrows.
Gu Jingyi raised his hand and touched Gu Wangshu's forehead.
"I don't have a fever either. Why are you talking nonsense?"
His teasing made Gu Wangshu dumbfounded.
"Brother Six, I am very sober. As long as we seize all the arrows from the Nalan Kingdom, we will have endless arrows. The Nalan Army will be deeply affected by the loss of arrows. By then, we want to Wouldn't it be easy to shoot them from a distance? If they want to attack us from a distance, it's impossible without arrows."
Her words are exciting, but in practice they are just wishful thinking.
"Nalan Jun is neither crazy nor stupid, how could he watch us seize the arrows and remain indifferent?" Gu Jingli looked at Gu Wangshu as if he was watching her playing house.
After being flatly denied by his fifth and sixth brothers, Gu Wangshu turned his attention to He Lianhuan.
"Does Your Highness feel the same way?"
"If I say that I can get the Nalan Army to take the initiative to give arrows to us, and let them watch the arrows fall into our hands but can do nothing, does your Highness also think that I am talking nonsense?"
Facing her bright and confident eyes, He Lianhuan had no doubts about what she said.
After careful calculation, the two of them have only known each other for half a year and have been together for less than two months.
But from her visit to the prison, to her decisive killing of Lu Xing, to her persuasion of Lord Helian to come to the prison to release him, to finally her plan to set up a fire attack outside Taiping City...
Each of these things is enough to prove that she is smart, unusually sharp and courageous.
He doesn't have to trust Gu Wangshu, but he absolutely trusts his own vision and intuition in seeing people.
"I believe you can do it." He answered without hesitation, and everything from his eyes to his words affirmed and encouraged Gu Wangshu.
Gu Wangshu's heart suddenly softened.
Thousands of gold are easy to get, but confidants are hard to find.
If He Lianhuan was not a prince but a princess, Gu Wangshu felt that they would definitely become best friends.
She smiled and said: "Your Highness, you believe me so much? Are you not afraid that my bad idea will ruin the lives of General Helian?"
He Lianhuan raised his eyebrows and smiled: "With your character, even if you put yourself in danger, you will not joke with the lives of tens of thousands of He Lianjun."
He could see that Gu Wangshu was a woman of great wisdom and ambition.
She was doing it for the family she loved, for the people of Helian, and for the entire country of Helian.
"It's not a well-thought-out approach. You won't take risks easily, right?"
Gu Wangshu was so moved by his trust that he spoke out the countermeasures he had thought of without reservation.
After hearing this, He Lianhuan's smile became deeper and deeper.
Gu Wangshu's mind can always come up with unexpected ways, and this time it gave him another huge surprise.
Gu Jingli and Gu Jingyi, who just now felt that their sister was having a whim, their eyes widened and their mouths opened slightly, dumbfounded by shock.
No wonder the two of them had such ridiculous expressions.
Ever since she was a child, Gu Wangshu has always looked like a gentle and gentle lady who never leaves or steps out of the door.
Before the two left Yong'an, Gu Wangshu had not yet been reborn.
Ever since Gu Wangshu came back from rebirth, she was still polite and courteous in terms of etiquette, but her whole temperament had changed. Now she was not only the legitimate daughter of General Gu's mansion, but also a qualified counselor.
"X-Xiao Shu, how did you come up with such a brilliant idea?"
Gu Wangshu and He Lianhuan looked at each other.
Gu Wangshu did not answer his brother's question directly, but asked He Lianhuan.
"What do you think, Your Highness?"
He Lianhuan's smile grew wider.
He believed that she could come up with countermeasures, and he also saw her trust in him from her eyes.
She believed that he would be able to analyze what kind of strategy she used.
The mutual trust and tacit understanding made the two deeply feel the spiritual resonance.
Gu Jingli and Gu Jingyi were like two light bulbs, their eyes switching back and forth between them.
"???"
"that......"
Before Gu Jingli could speak, He Lianhuan said:
"To lure them in kind is to attack them; this is the first step, to attract others."
"If you have any doubts, you should knock on the truth, observe and then act. Those who recover are the mediators of Yin; this is the second step, which is to scare away the grass and scare the snake."
"It's not a lie, it's actually Shaoyin, Taiyin, and Taiyang. This is the third step, creating something out of nothing."
"With these three strategies, if you want to seize Nalan's arrows and destroy his morale, you must do it."
